Rented this from GameFly years ago and didn’t like the gameplay but the show was so good that I decided to give it another try

And I learned something about myself: my favorite thing about games like this, Bioshock, and Resident Evil is just looting places

Looting homes, businesses, schools, forests, you name it

Throw me into the post-apocalypse and I’ll be a fat little packrat

In Symphony of Sorcery there’s a huge barrel full of grapes that you can walk in so theoretically Sora can recreate the viral FOX 5 grape lady fall

“AH OW OU OUH OUUUUUUUUH”

This is like playing Magic the Gathering but without the friend who spent $300 on a card that makes it so they can’t be killed and they win instantly (true story)

I like that Sora has to atone for his sins in every Conqueror’s Respite by climbing a Snake Eater ladder

My KH road blocks are:
-most of the data Organization battles/Lingering Will in II
-the Vexen fights near the end of Re:CoM
-my DS crashing anytime I try to play 358/2 days

But you know what? I FINALLY BEAT THE ICE CREAM MINIGAME IN VEN’S CAMPAIGN AND BEAT THE REST OF BBS BABY

IT ONLY TOOK TWO YEARS BUT I DID IT

DONALD’S NEPHEWS CAN SUCK IT

The best part about this game is imagining what all of Mr Fantastic’s transformations would look like in live action

Everything Quan Chi does in here is the funniest thing ever

One of the very first things we see in the first cutscene is him booking it out of Netherrealm like a kid running from the hall monitor, and his fatality is essentially him turning everyone into giraffes then looking mildly upset or confused about it

I haven’t played this since release so I thought I’d give it another try and I have one question:

Why did they hire a VA for Spider-Man that sounds like the “hi, my name is Charmander” guy? https://youtu.be/flqPMjtnyL4

The stripped down art style is gorgeous, Kiki looks like my cat, and I love how easy it is to keep track of all the upgrades to get 100%

But I think I got an aneurysm, died, came back to life, and had 12 more aneurysms during any and every mouse boss fight

I was seriously throwing tantrums like a baby during the underwater/lava room fights as well as the chase scene when you're not in your suit

She Trace on my Axiom til I’m on the Verge

But seriously Tommy Happ must’ve had the most tragic day of his life when he designed the Ukhu fight because no sane or well-adjusted individual would just do that

No rating yet because I’m shelving it for the moment

I love the exploration but I hate the mouse boss battles more than I hate Hitler

Waited to log this until I got the Platinum Trophy because I have the exaggerated mental illness of a white adult

The absolute dread I felt whenever a cultist would approach me with a quest, knowing there was a chance it would be to force another cultist to eat poop again

My OCD-rattled brain cried out in immense pain when I realized that I wouldn’t be able to 100% the Scan Logs because I didn’t scan the first boss

They really took a look at the combat and exploration abilities from the first one and thought, “what if everything took ten times as long?”

Like dang Ubisoft I’d love to finish this combat encounter before I get my AARP card
